Volume dependant pressure.

Is there an example of the volume dependent pressure in action?

I plug the KGas straight into the Force objects on the solver and I get nothing as shown, and the mesh just sinks to the ground, flat as a pancake.

Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

You need some springs for the edges of the mesh, and to set a value for the K input.

Here's an example:

Thank you very much Daniel. That makes sense.

My intention with this was to inflate various balloons between 2 planes/boxes a unit distance apart so that their volume would be equivalent to their area. (I imagine it would look like a voronoi diagram, with specific areas for each cell.)

In this way brief areas could be programmed (taking and extending stuff done by Marc Syp). After poking around the threads it seems that 2 way interaction between items cannot currently be simulated by kangaroo? Am I correct in saying that multiple balloons cannot interact with each other?

cheers,

Bob
